D has been on a Manhattan kick of late, and wanted to see how his made-at-home version compared to the real deal. So we headed to the aptly-named Village Whiskey for drinks this evening, and while there, decided to grab some dinner too. In addition to their whiskey collection, Village Whiskey is known for their beef burgers -- so D ordered the Village Burger (made with sustainable farm-raised angus beef from Maine) while I went with the veggie burger (which featured black beans and lentils, guacamole, and pickled red cabbage). We were both members of the Clean Plate Club, so I think that officially means the burgers were quite good. As were our drinks -- I had a delightfully-refreshing mint julep, while D enjoyed the requisite Manhattan (which tasted quite similar to the version he's made at home) and an Old Fashioned. Oh, and I couldn't resist ordering an appetizer of tater tots. They were basically fried dollops of mashed potatoes -- and dare I say they tasted too good. I had to push them away, or else I would have gobbled down the whole dishful myself.
